The given question is incomplete as options are not provided, however the options are as follows:

A. a large surface area-to-volume ratio

B. ability to form stacks known as rouleaux

C. a convex shape allowing for more efficient transport of oxygen

D. ability to bend and flex when entering capillaries

Answer:

The correct answer is - option C.

Explanation:

RBC cells are biconcave in the shape it is form shape of dub bell in general. These cells are small, round. The biconcave shape of the blood cells helps in the flow of the blood easily and these cells have no nucleus like other cells to have high amount of hemoglobin that is a pigment that carry oxygen and other gases for easy gaseous exchange.

Due to their flexible biconcave shape they can bend and flex accordingly during entering capillaries. The shape of the RBC helps in making stacks and large surface to area ratio.

Thus, the correct answer is - option C.

Glucose is broken down in the chemical processes of aerobic respiration.

Papessa [141]

$\bold{\huge{\purple{\underline{ Answer }}}}$

Aerobic respiration :- Aerobic respiration is process of respiration in which complete oxidation of glucose takes place in the presence of oxygen

That is, 

Aerobic respiration is takes place in four stages :-

Glycolysis
The link reaction
The Krebs cycle
Oxidative phosphorylation

In aerobic respiration, Glucose with 6 carbon atoms broken into 2 pyruvic acid each with 3 carbon atom and produces water + CO2 + energy.

<h3>Whereas, </h3>

Anaerobic respiration :- is the process of respiration in which incomplete oxidation of glucose takes place in the absence of oxygen

The end products of glucose in anaerobic respiration is

In human muscles,  Lactic acid + Energy
In yeast, Ethanol + CO2 + Energy

Hence, Option D is the correct answer.

In an ecosystem, energy from the Sun is transferred by way of _____.

Lorico [155]

Answer: food chains or webs

In an ecosystem, energy from the sun is transferred by the way of food chains or webs. A food chain is a linear sequence of organisms through which food and energy is passed as one organism eats the another. A food web is the interconnection or relation of food chains. In a food chain energy is distributed among the trophic levels. Plants are primary producers which traps energy from sun for photosynthesis and belong to first trophic level in the food chain. The energy of sun present in plants is transferred to subsequent higher trophic levels when plants are consumed by other organisms.
